1.	Consider the following statements about the Plutonic (intrusive) rocks observed in the field: 1. LACCOLITHS: Vertical to steeply inclined and sheet like body which Cut across the bedding of the rocks in which they intrude. 2. LOPOLITHS: These are basin or saucer-shaped concordant bodies with top nearly flat and convex bottom 3. PHACOLITHS: All intrusive igneous bodies with irregular shape, i.e. the body with no specific shape. 4. CHONOLITHS: These are concordant bodies that occur along the crests and troughs of the folded sedimentary strata. Which of the above statements are incorrect?
